Art Spiegelman’s Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel Mouse is a landmark in confronting the Holocaust and a breakthrough in serious comicsโ€”but its full achievements are more unusual and eclectic. Art Spiegelman: Disaster Is My Muse traces his beginnings as a co-creator of Wacky Packages trading cards in the 1960s; his co-founding of the underground comics magazines Arcade (with Bill Griffith) and Row (with his wife, Francoise Mauley); his response to the 9/11 attacks, “The Shadow of the No Towers,” inspired by witnessing the attacks from his home in lower Manhattan; his controversial covers for The New Yorker (1993-2003), which prompted the New York City police to raid the magazine’s offices; and his public response to the recent banning of Mouse by the Tennessee school board. Spiegelman proved to be a skilled guide through his provocative works, inspired by Spiegelman’s unwavering confrontation with contemporaries (Robert Crumb, Gary Panter) and younger cartoonists (Joe Sacco, Jerry Kraft, Molly Crabapple) over personal, traumatic themes.
